NEW ART LESSON 3

THIS IS THE NEXT TO THE FINAL STAGE OF THE PAINTING.
I STARTED BY LIGHTENING THE SHADOW AREA IN THE BLACK BULL IN THE FRONT. I REALIZED THAT YOU COULDN'T SEE IN THE SHADOW AREA. THERE IS INTEREST THAT DID NOT SHOW AND I WANTED YOU TO SEE IN THE SHADOW. IT HAS SOME INTERESTING THINGS GOING ON.

I ALSO PUT MORE DETAIL IN THE FOREGROUND AND ADJUSTED DOWN AS YOU GO TO THE REAR OF THE PAINTING. IF YOU LOOK AT THE SHADOW IN THE FRONT OF THE COWS. YOU WILL SEE THE SHADOW WILL GET LIGHTER AS IT GOES TO THE BACK COW. THAT IS WHAT I MENT BY AREAL PERSPECTIVE.
I CAN'T HELP BUT THINK SOMETHING IS MISSING. I WILL KEEP THAT IN MIND AS I GO TO THE FINISH OF THIS PAINTING.
